The feelings that you are experiencing are not uncommon after breast augmentation. It is normal to feel one side bigger, higher than the other side. I would not be concerned unless it continues to get bigger or more painful.

It is not uncommon to experience soreness in one breast more than the other. You are only 5 days after surgery, so you likely have postoperative swelling which is normal. To be safe, please see your plastic surgeon for a checkup.
